brakes, not shifting!
« on: February 28, 2010, 04:51:56 PM »
Okay. Put in a new Booster/Master cylinder, bled the brake lines, all that is good. Can put the car into reverse and neutral, but it will not go into drive. What am I missing, do I need to adjust the pedal in regards to the switches, or do I need to adjust the pin that pushes in the Master Cylinder on the Booster?

nothing with the brakes has anything to do with the shifter or transmission ? might want to crawl under check that your cable isnt messed up somehwhere ....... was it working fine before the brakes? odd if it happened after....but id start by taking a look at the cable if thats ok, then move onto the shifter, if thats ok, id disconnect the cable and while the car isnt running, crawl under and see if you can move the selector on the transmission into the gears, then slowly work your way back to the shifter to find out whats binding or holding it from going into gear....
